Using CD drive / drivers in DOS Sunday, December 1, 2002 at 9:35 pm Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Yann (12 messages posted) This is one I haven't solved yet. Some old DOS games only run in DOS mode. Of course, making a boot disk helps. But I am having some problems configuring the CONFIG.SYS and the AUTOEXEC.BAT files. I have a DVD and a CD-R drive, and want to use at least one of them in DOS. On older computers, I used to write device(high)=c:\"cddriver.sys" /d:mscd001 in the CONFIG.SYS file, and c:\windows\command\mscdex /d:mscd001 /l:"drive letter" in the AUTOEXEC file. But now, my O/S is Win98, and I have no idea of the name of the SYS file to mention in the device command string, nor if the "mscdex" is the right driver id. Any hint on this subject would help. Thanks.
